Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Feynman reminds me of the brujo (one specific man, not brujería in general) from Pirsig's Lila. Feynman's safecracking and unorthodox approaches are like the brujo's routine flaunting of social norms; through routinely doing things the wrong way (sacred clowning), new possible behaviors and modes of social existence are explored. Also, Feynman's attitudes towards women remind me of that brujo's tendency to spy on women by looking through their windows into their homes while they were not necessarily dressed, which the brujo's society did not tolerate.
